Description
You’re just a gentle stroll from Macclesfield town centre, with its brilliant mix of independent shops, cosy coffee spots, and a train station offering regular links to Manchester and London. Think Friday evenings at Suburban Green, Saturday pastries from Flour Water Salt, and Sunday walks straight into the countryside. It’s one of those locations that just feels right.
The house itself is everything you’d hope for in a home of this era - full of character, beautifully styled, and thoughtfully updated. The bespoke kitchen, installed less than two years ago, is a real highlight with its inbuilt pantry/coffee cupboard, Belfast sink, and Aga. It opens into a bright dining area overlooking the garden, creating that sociable, open-plan feel so many of us love.
There are three generous reception rooms, each packed with original features. The two front rooms have elegant plantation shutters, and the current layout includes a formal lounge, a study, and a playroom - plenty of flexibility to suit your lifestyle.
The entrance hallway sets the tone with its ceiling rose, cornicing, and a door at the far end that frames the garden beautifully and fills the space with natural light. A large picture window on the stairwell does the same, offering lovely views across the hillside.
Upstairs, the master bedroom is wonderfully spacious and comes with an en-suite featuring his-and-hers sinks. The three additional bedrooms are all great sizes and share a stylish, recently refitted bathroom with a standout vanity unit.
On the lower ground floor, you’ll find a cellar with plumbing for utilities and access out to the garden. Practical and full of potential.
Outside, there’s a driveway to the front and a generous rear garden with a raised decked area and a lawn beyond - perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
It's such a beautiful home and I'd love to show you round.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
